Ingredients

Scale

For the strawberry salsa

  • 1 oz. (30g) dried apricots (soft)
  • 0.75 oz. (20g) dried cranberries
  • 23 kumquats
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 2 tbsp. white wine vinegar
  • 2/3 cup (150ml) water
  • 1 mild chili pepper
  • 23 strawberries
  • pepper

For the balsamico sauce

  • 1/4 cup (60ml) Balsamico
  • 1 tbsp. honey
  • 1 spring of rosemary

For the goat cheese

  • 4 slices (about 4.2 oz.) goat cheese
  • 4 slices of bread
  • olive oil
  • 3.5 oz. (100g) wild herbs salad

Instructions

  1. Take the goat cheese out of the fridge and let come to room temperature. Wash the salad and strawberries and let drain. Wash the kumquats with hot water and dry.
  2. For the salsa cut the apricots, cranberries, kumquats and strawberries into small dices. Add all fruits – except the strawberries – to a small saucepan, add honey, vinegar and water and heat up. Cut the chili pepper into small pieces and add to the saucepan. Let all simmer for about 4-5 minutes until most of the liquid is gone. Take from the heat and let cool down.
  3. Add the balsamico, honey and rosemary to a small saucepan and heat up. Let simmer until reduced to a thick sauce. Remove the rosemary and set aside to cool down.
  4. Add the diced strawberries to the salsa, mix and season with pepper. Brush the bread slices with some olive oil and roast in a hot pan. Add the goat cheese on top and flambé with a kitchen gas burner. Place some salad on each of the 4 plates, add the bread with the cheese on top, add some of the salsa and drizzle with the balsamico sauce. Serve with white wine.
